This was the more consistent side last year with strong receivers returning

Karla Gade

We seem to have more experience and explosive players on offense and I am looking forward to seeing what Mike Riley and Danny Langsdorf do with the talent.

Roger Noonan

Tommy Armstrong with the help of his wr's (best group in big ten) will win alott of games for nebraska this year late in the season when they need them most.

Danny Baker

More weapons on offense. Too many questions on defense.

Steve Feye

While it might not be dynamic, there is good talent and depth at receiver and more opportunity with the O-line than most give credit. The key will be quarterbacking, where i predict Darlington will overtake Armstrong at some point, and adaptability of the coaching staff to match talent with strate

Andy Fields

you suck

Damian Holmes

The defensive staff is less proven, personnel question marks at DE and depth issues at LB.

Mas Shara

Although the talent is good enough on the DL, we're thin at LB. Also, not sure about banker or at least more sure of MR & DL at least for now. We'll see, I am hoping that the days of Wisconsin blow-outs are a thing of the past

Because Tommy Armstrong does not play on the defence.

Kevin Hamilton

Players can play now, should be a big improvement!

Robert Lloyd

Going back to fundamental defense and getting rid of the complex garbage of Pelini. Big difference.

Ronald D. Bull

the defense will be more aggressive and attacking and different from the past which was less aggressive.

Isaiah Skrdla

I think that the simplified scheme will make the defense better early. The first string looks very talented. The lack of depth at some positions could hurt the d late however. Staying healthy will be important. A pro-style offense takes several years to perfect so I think there will be growing pains

Robert Schutt

With 3 of the remaining 4 January games on the road, it will be an uphill climb in remaining playoff undefeated.

Terrence Smith

... and I hope I'm wrong.

Randy Wolf

Michigan.

VAHuskerFan

They r playing really well but I just don’t see them winning out in January, they live and die by the 3 and it’s gonna end up costing them, not much inside the paint game. I see everyone standing outside the 3 line wanting to shoot the 3 but no one ever inside to get rebounds, wont work against Mich

Suicide Slush Puppie

Probably not - that's expecting a lot - but regardless, what they've accomplished is nothing short of extraordinary.

Jerry Goodwin

This team is really good and they will continue to give themselves a chance in every game, but...3 of the next 4 on the road, including Michigan? That's a tough run. If they win out in January and beat Illinois at home on February 1st, they'll be #1 in the country the next day.

They are living on borrowed time.

Feature back is important to have but DEPTH is also CRITICAL. If don't have a feature back then either then depth chart is flooded with talent. But in the Big Ten you better have a GREAT 2nd and 3rd string to make it through the season. With EJ it helped he was so quick he didn't take huge hits

Terry Barker

Nebraska was always most stable when we had a feature back that can actually "carry" the team with his legs.

Ron Joseph

Nebraska in the past was successful with one top back. We've fallen on hard times because we haven't developed or recruited a great back. But the others need to be developed so we have a pipeline of backs like we use to have.

Roger Craig & Tom Rathman ring a bell ? Not only a dynamic duo playing for NU, but also for the 49ers !! YES we want multiple RB’s to rotate in & out to keep their legs fresh!! GBR 🎈

SEW

Look at the success in the playoff, the teams have 2-3 capable RB's they use to keep them healthy and offer the D different looks. Johnson was unique, most backs can't take that many snaps a season and stay healthy and sharp.

PJ SAid

Every good team, including the NFL, will rotate backs on a regular basis. This last year Nebraska should have used a 2nd running back more often - NEB is lucked out EJ stayed healthy.

Brad Loseke

Different backs have skills for different situations.
